Physical activity: how to become an Active Practice

The RCGP Active Practice Charter promotes practices building links with local physical activity providers, though funding can be a barrier to securing partnerships. Securing funding is a crucial step in launching and sustaining physical activity projects that benefit both healthcare staff and patients. This webinar will guide primary care professionals through the process of identifying and applying for financial support to implement initiatives aimed at increasing physical activity. By exploring various funding opportunities and successful case studies, participants will gain the tools and knowledge needed to develop compelling proposals and drive long-term engagement in physical activity within their practice or network.
